joe biden and from paul ryan. megyn: in these debates, of course, they try to prepare you and try to beat up on you more than you'll get beat up on when you get out there. that's what they've been doing on both sides. they are having ted olson, the former solicitor general, play joe biden as paul ryan prepares for tonight's debate. who played joe biden when you were getting ready to debate him, and was the real one or the fake one tougher to debate? >> i remember that randy signman played joe biden for at least one of our debate prep exercise exercises, and i remember staring him down going are you really going to be such a stinker in this debate prep? he hammered me left and right, but that is good prep. megyn, i think it's going to be very, very important for paul ryan to do what i attempted to do, and that's try to coax out of joe biden his rationale for all the flip-flops. he had just come out of a primary season where he was beating the heck out of barack obama and the positions barack obama had taken as a se
